Phage Therapy articles and chapters are presented in ascending-author order. Open access articles are as indicated as well as links generally, the latter mostly as call-outs.

At best this list will be updated on a yearly basis. The goal would be to have all of a year's publications available before doing this, e.g., as may be the case by, say, June of a given year. If we don't get our act together by July or so, feel free to remind us.

There will be references that are missing, typos, missing accents, or just plain things that we were unable to figure out (indicated in many cases with a "???"). Don't be shy about letting us know about these.

Otherwise, do feel free to cite us (as indicated above), like us, spread the word about the page, or, if you are an editor, then perhaps how we might draw attention to the page in publication.

But above all, use the page. There are far too many publications which don't seem to indicate an appreciation of the extent of the phage therapy literature. Remember that if you don't know your stuff, the time you are wasting is not just your own.

The beginnings of categorization of publications is presented: "Experimental" refers to phage therapy (or biocontrol) experiments, ones other than simply adding phages to bacteria found in broth or immature bacterial lawns; a "Review" (or "Brief Overview") is of phage therapy (or biocontrol) experiments; a "Commentary" states an opinion on some aspect of phage therapy (or biocontrol) and does not otherwise extensively review phage therapy (though note that there can be a fine line between commentary and review); "PT related" covers something other than simply the use of phages as antibacterial agents but nonetheless is in some way relevant to phage thearpy (or phage-mediated biocontrol); a "Monograph" is a book that to some substantial degree covers phage therapy (or biocontrol); and "Mentions" means that somewhere in an article there is, well, mention of phage therapy. A question indicates a lack of confidence in a categorization.

New references were added on May 16, 2017.
